Most of my life I never ate breakfast, and for much of my life I skipped lunch. Lots of people are surprised by this, but apparently it's called one meal a day or something. Though for a while I've been doing a smoothie breakfast. Cutting back on that since it's a lot more calories than I thought. I find these days I'm hungrier and more prone to "feeling it in my brain" than when I was younger.
- dangwhy 4y agodo you have good muscle tone. I was doing this for a while and became skinnyfat with a gut.
- jmkr 4y agoNot at the moment, got used to the sedentary lifestyle, but totally promise myself everyday I'll start exercising to some degree. I've actually been kinda confused about my diet for a year or so. I gained a bunch of weight and thought it was because of meds, but a couple of years ago on a similar diet I lost a bunch of weight. I guess I'm just following procedures instead of counting calories these day.
- JohnFen 4y agoMy eating habits are similar, and I got the belly problem as I entered middle age. It turned out that it was caused by a sedentary lifestyle. Incorporating daily mild exercise (I do it by bicycling to and from work) fixed that up.
- orev 4y agoSmoothies are one of those “health things” that aren’t healthy at all. Loaded with sugar, and all the fiber from fruit is pre-digested so you get a huge jolt of easily absorbed sugar and then an insulin rush and crash later. Almost as bad as soda pop. Just eat the whole fruit. It still has sugar but the time it takes for your body to slowly digest it means the sugar is released slowly and you get a steady flow of energy.
